On a small plate combine ground ginger, Sonoma sea salt & ground nutmeg. Take your lime wedge and roll it around the rim of your rocks style cocktail glass. Dip the wet rim onto the plate of salted spice mixture. Add a large ice cube into your glass. Set aside. In a cocktail shaker, add all the liquid ingredients and a measure of ice. Close shaker and shake vigorously until well chilled and the purée is integrated. Strain over the prepared cocktail glass, garnish and enjoy!
